    WAY more than a bootcamp 10/10

    Sure, it has an excelent academic quality and the staff is incredible at their job (I honestly think many of them are over qualified geniuses teaching to complete noobs to technology like me), but what makes it special is the human quality of the whole program. I learnt to think differently in order to solve problems, which helped me to code but also to solve real life issues.

    With three meals a day, a psycologist to talk to when you need, a stable income and even childcare for m...

    Nothing out there is just as great as this

    As alumni from the 1st generation at first, I did not know what to expect since I've never heard of any type of program in which they teach and feed you every day plus they support you with a weekly stipend so you can keep concentrating in your studies. They will walk with you every step of the way and support you in anything you might need help with. When you read the program's syllabus you read that you learn CSS, HTML, and Javascript among other things. But since the first day there are...

    Best life experience ever

    A combination of excitement and nerves fueled me towards my start date as I didn’t know whether or not these sentiments were purely fabrications. As I enter week eight of my coding bootcamp experience, I can assure you that these people did not exaggerate.

    Coding bootcamps are difficult by design due to the short amount of time available to transfer a massive amount of programming knowledge into your brain, but I’ve found some things that will make the experience more managea...

    More than just a coding bootcamp

    I came into Hola Code thinking I would learn Javascript, but what I got from it was more than just a skill. I acquired knowledge on  how to build entire web apps. 
    This experience helped me to change my mind set and logical way of thinking, I became autonomous and can learn how to use new tools and framework in just a couple of days.
    Hola-code has a strong community in which you don't only meet mates and mentors, you become part of a family.

    I'm a cohort 2 graduate. I was looking into a number of different bootcamps in Mexico, however HolaCode is the best option considering everything it offers. Holacode's corriculmn is extremely difficult but just as rewarding; it built my skills in order to work effectively in a company and become an extraordinary developer. I highly recomen you apply if your passionate about development and want to have the necesary tools required in the tech sector.
